Chapter 1198: Far and Near

At dawn, Zhao Cheng took the remaining fifty people and went to Wu Yuan's camp. Wu Yuan and his party traveled lightly and left few things, except for the simple tents and some drinking water.

Wu Yuan left little clean water, but there was a kind of medicine powder, which could be mixed into the water in the mountains and forests to purify the water quality and make it barely drinkable, but you can't drink too much, because drinking too much will damage your body.

In the wild, not all water can be drunk. Many waters look clear, but after drinking, there are various side effects, such as poisoning or diarrhea. As for the medicine powder, it is a by-product of Taoist alchemy.

Undoubtedly, for Zhao Cheng and his party who were almost at the end of their rope, the things left by Wu Yuan can be said to have solved the urgent need.

And the most important thing is that after killing Wu Yuan, the powerful enemy, although half of their own side died, the survivors did not feel much sadness, but their morale was greatly boosted.

On the one hand, those who survived were rewarded. On the other hand, the complete annihilation of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in this battle undoubtedly gave the remaining Huang Tianjun confidence and more expectations for the future.

As for the death of comrades, in this era, the most common thing is death, and death is not worth mentioning in front of rewards.

In such a chaotic world, human lives are as thin as weeds.

In addition, the old soldiers of the Huang Tianjun were originally refugees who could no longer survive. It didn't make much difference to them whether they were killed or starved to death.

Their logic is very simple. Although they may die if they follow Zhao Cheng, they can also win. If they can win, they will have merits, rewards, meat to eat in the future, and even return home in glory.

As for whether the Huang Tianjun can win the world in the end, the big soldiers don't care about these...

At least it looks good now, that's enough.

Zhao Cheng has a very clear grasp of the various thoughts of his subordinates. Those who have read some books, such as Wang Shouzheng and Wei Ye, think a little further. For the rest, their knowledge is not enough to support them to think too far.

After fighting all night, although they had rested for a while, the remaining fifty-odd people were already very tired.

Therefore, after receiving Wu Yuan's legacy, Zhao Cheng ordered the whole army to rest for two hours in Wu Yuan's camp before carrying out the post-war rewards.

Either promotion or bounty.

After the rewards, there were even more sergeants than soldiers.

But this was also created intentionally by Zhao Cheng.

This kind of organizational structure will naturally not work over a long period of time, but it is no problem to use it for a short period of time now.

Imagine that all the officers were rewarded by him. Later, when he found more remnants of Huang Tian, ​​he could directly break up those remnants and incorporate them. There would be no problem in using them.

Because the officers were the first soldiers to follow him.

In this case, the officers would feel that they had a kind of incense relationship with the superiors who promoted them, and they were born closer.

It will also make the officers who join later feel that this superior has unparalleled prestige and it is difficult for them to have other thoughts.

The so-called authority is established bit by bit.

And this is just the beginning. Later, Zhao Cheng also plans to run a school in the army. All officers with high enough positions must go to study for a period of time, and he himself will naturally be the principal.

In this case, all the senior officers are nominally his students, and in the inherent concept of this era, the relationship between teachers and students is undoubtedly very close.

The superiors should keep a distance from their subordinates. If they do not keep a distance, their subordinates will be arrogant and lack respect, but they should not be too distant. In addition to pure interests, there must be other emotional ties.

At this moment, Zhao Cheng looked at his subordinates, and the excited expressions after receiving the reward, but countless things in the past, present and future flashed through his mind.

Throughout the ages, when the superiors had not yet conquered the world, they either established schools or sworn brotherhoods, using the relationship between master and apprentice or brotherhood to make heroes work for them. At that time, the distance between the superiors and subordinates was not particularly large, but after conquering the world, they had to greatly distance themselves from the inferiors.

The difference between the monarch and the ministers is above all other ties. If anyone dares to cross it, there is no one who cannot be killed.

So it is said that the emperor has no relatives!

Of course, Zhao Cheng is not an emperor at this moment, so he does not need to be too far away from his subordinates.

However, these people are not as talented as others, and Zhao Cheng needs to maintain a close relationship to maintain his relationship.

Zhao Cheng's expression did not change at all as he thought about it. His spiritual world evolved into multiple forms, and even turned the false into the true. Among them, the changes of dynasties and the birth and death of civilizations are countless, and any template can be found.

It's just that although there are spiritual worlds, he has practiced only a small part of them.

In this world, he did not put much effort into the disputes in the human world. He just made a script first, and then everything was done according to the script, without any variables.

Only the void, or the demon fetus transformed by Doomsday, is the place where his efforts are verified.

Before, he had no foundation in this world. Although his super-dimensional body was extraordinary, he was missing a perspective because of the obstruction of the Dark Emperor.

Now, his foundation in this world is getting deeper and deeper, and the Tao seed has bloomed to the sixth level, and the missing perspective is also constantly being completed.

Even his understanding of the earth and the void from a transcendental perspective, the various knowledge he gained from this world, and the collision with the harvest from another perspective now, immediately produced a subtle change.

From a transcendental perspective, the earth is matter, the void is energy, and the structure of this world shows a kind of matter-energy transformation that contains the way of immortality. Matter rises to energy, condenses in the void, and finally falls to the earth.

And looking from the low to the high, it is another feeling. Matter is not matter, energy is not energy, the void is real, and the earth is empty...

This world shows Zhao Cheng a structural state of matter and energy, and the rest are all superficial.

This is undoubtedly something new. Therefore, under the reflection of the mind, although Zhao Cheng can't observe the part that has been eroded by the demon fetus, even if it is only part, it still makes Zhao Cheng's own material structure and energy structure in the great unified system undergo huge changes.

Especially the last puzzle piece that constituted his own Dao fruit, which belonged to the structure of the energy god, because the carrier became more stable, more possibilities burst out immediately.

Almost every moment, he was stronger and more perfect than the previous moment, but the real bottleneck finally appeared, that is, no matter how he changed, how he adjusted, how he approached absolute perfection, he was always a little short of it.

Infinitely close, after all, does not mean reaching.
